“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
Americans did not take these words lightly at our founding nor should we take them lightly now. With the divine intervention of God Almighty, and a relatively small group of amazing Men and Women, our nation was created—and today, we still hold this strong desire for freedom in our American DNA, and on this Independence Day, my appeal to all is to never forget those who sacrificed along the path of freedom allowing us to stand our ground as the freest nation in the history of the world. And yes…
“This flag still stands for freedom!”
